DAO: A New and Public Non-Relativistic Reflection Model

Yimin Huang, Honghui Liu, Cosimo Bambi +4

We present a new non-relativistic reflection model, DAO, designed to calculate reflection spectra in the rest frame of accretion disks in X-ray binaries and active galactic nuclei.…

Modeling reflection spectra of super-Eddington X-ray sources

Swarnim Shashank, Askar B. Abdikamalov, Honghui Liu +5

Relativistic reflection is a common feature in the X-ray observations of accreting compact objects. We present reflux, a new X-ray reflection model for spectral analysis of super-E…

Relativistic reflection within an extended hot plasma geometry

Alexey D. Nekrasov, Thomas Dauser, Javier A. Garcia +9

The reflection of X-rays at the inner accretion disk around black holes imprints relativistically broadened features in the observed spectrum. Aside from the black hole properties…

Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies Beyond the Local X-ray Universe: An X-ray spectral sample

Jiachen Jiang, Dominic J. Walton, Luigi C. Gallo +8

Narrow-line Seyfert 1 AGNs (NLS1s) represent a unique stage in the black hole growth history, characterised by low black hole masses of approximately - solar masses…

Variable ionized disk wind in MAXI J1803-298 revealed by NICER

Zuobin Zhang, Cosimo Bambi, Honghui Liu +7

We present the results from the NICER observation data of MAXI J1803-298 across the entire 2021 outburst. In the intermediate and soft state, we detect significant absorption lines…
